i know flexshield ones have "nexus one" written on the back :S dont bother mentioning tht
Update:
A youtube user "wextercz" uploaded some videos of htc desire cases...2 of them seem to be the flexishield skins on the mobilefun website..enjoy
HTC Desire cases
HTC Desire case White
HTC Desire case Black
HTC Desire case Diamond
HTC Desire case Orange

Received my Noreve case today for the Desire. Great quality as you'd expect but the flap that should project the screen is a little too short so it does not lay flat on the screen when fasten. Perhaps will losen with time.

Re: Cool cases at mobilefun
@inkredi
didn't even notice the nexus one label on the back before I ordered! will let you know what it says when it comes through....

yeah please let me know...and check how the back speakers cut fits and the functionality...thanks mate

Thanks for the flexishield info. Have ordered one from mobile fun. Not cheap though at £13, but still if it protects the phone its a small price to pay.

Re: Cool cases at mobilefun
@inkredi
will do, should come through on Tuesday.

to everyone who is living outside europe, ... mobile fun doesnt ship outside europe
thats what is showing in their site

hey guys...
i've been reading on here for a while, havent had much 'need' so to speak to join up.. but i do now. Used to reference here with my omnia and now with having ordered a desire from clove.. ive become stuck.
Im in australia and the frosted flexshield is exactly what i want to protect my soon to be newborn. Theres not much in aus in the way of accessories as its an unreleased phone (even though on one of our forums, whirlpool, theres around 100 htc nuts on preorder).
Was just wondering if anyone could go out on a limb and purchase a clear/frosted flexshield for me, then post it on?
im probably not real likely to get a response, and i understand that, but i was hoping to have my phone protected as soon as i got it, as i work as a sparky on construction sites.
If anyone is feeling upto the task, shoot me a pm. ill see you guys around the traps either way, love the website.
cheers,
leigh.
edit- alternatively, if anyone knows a place that ships this internationally, thatd be awesome

Mine is a semi-transparent black one, Nexus case. Looks quite nice, I thought, AND lets you still see where the volume and power buttons are.

There are a couple of them on ebay, solid black and the diamond/crystal pattern ones.
I haven't seen the brightly coloured ones probably need to wait for some one to buy a wholesale lot of them if you can't find them anywhere by searching around for TPU or gel nexus one cases.

Are these flexishield cases silicon or some other material? I am looking for something that doesn't attract dust like the silicon ones do.....

Re: Cool cases at mobilefun
They are TPU not silicone.

has and one tried these? http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ORANGE-HYBRID..._MobilePhonesCasesPouches&hash=item230917a34f

woah looks so nice
i got a red one similar, red mesh from Korea

They look really nice, at £2.90 its got to be worth a go.
Ordered a black one.

nooooooo i like that orange one in the photo it's so perfect!
i got the red one at the time, because that seller didn't have other cooler colours like orange/blue or fluorescent green

Hi I was wondering who u recommend me getting these mesh cases? Cause I like the red 1's but I never bought anything off ebay b4 and as if from south k I'm not sure and it will take ages to get here in the uk
And I agree I might ask him if he will do a special if I
Lol btw if u look at his ebay shop look the his mistake for a white case which it £29.90 when it should be £2.90 lol or I hope so its a mistake lol
Sent from my T-Mobile G1 using XDA App

Looks greta! An orange one already ordered!

Hope it's good cause I just ordered one (orange) At least it's fairly cheap
I was looking at the korean mesh cases too (red), but they're a bit pricey on ebay.
I am currently using a silicon cover which is nice for protection, but it makes the phone look a little bit fat and ugly lol.

I saw a Korean mesh case today in a shopping centre here in a Korean phone accessory store of course. It was extremely thin and fit snugly to the phone. It adds a wow factor for it's design. The red colour stands out more than the black of course, but the black also looks great. At AUD$18 which is actually cheaper than buying off ebay which is AUD$20.50.
In terms of protection, it's a back scratch protector and adds grip, it won't offer any falling protection like a silicone case will.
What I do like about it is, unlike the silicone cases which are quite bulky, the sides of the case are almost flat across the face of the phone. This makes it a real pleasure to swipe the phone to unlock and slide to different home screens. I find my fingers getting caught on the sides of the silicone case I have currently.

Haha, yeah I saw you question too
To break the bad news, it's in Sydney!

Saw a bunch of those hard cases at a shop yesterday. Don' think they had an orange one though. I remember seeing a black one, a white one, and a red one. They were selling them for HK$ 30 each.

how long did it take the case to get to you?

less than a week

Bought the Orange one yesterday and will hopefully give feedback about it soon. I so wanted the white one too, oh well, let's see if the quality's nice.

Got the casing and I can say that this is a fantastic but for the price. The hard gel casing does provide better protection but I've found a new affection for my device thanks to this.
I can also use the volume rocker easily now.

Neo Hybrid imitation, almost identical? UPDATED: Pictures and brief review

So, this was just listed on eBay. I ordered one too see how it will fit my original one or to compare it. It looks almost identical to the original one, especially with the buttons. The previous fake ones had the buttons intact to the tpu shell, this one isn't so it looks like the frame can be use for my original one. It's worth a try
P.S
It doesn't say NED HYBRID and the lettering is small like the original one

UPDATE:
I got mine from the mail, and good new people! IT FITS!
The case feels solid for the price in my opinion.
I doesnt feel or look cheap but I have to say the original one feels better.
The tpu that came with the knock off is more stiff than the spigen one but it doesnt feel cheap.
The frame look exactly the same with only differentiation are the "neo hybrid" logo and the buttons. Judge the pictures for yourself. And It does say "neo hybrid"
The buttons are not tight like the original ones, if i have one complain its the buttons, but they can be easily switched with the original ones. Push the buttons from in to out and they come off easily to be switched. That is what im planning on doing.
Cant complain with the price and how it goes along with the original ones.
They are the same thickness, if not the fake ones are a little thinner.
Look at the pictures for better judgement.

This looks much better, then those other fakes on ebay. I have also ordered one :laugh:

lol i was reading the item description and so blatantly they have stated "All photos are taken by our REAL item, not internet photos!" and the picture clearly shows Spigen on the back of the case. Maybe they hijacked a spigen delivery plane that was on its way to the US :laugh:

My guess is that when you get it, it will be a NED Hybrid and the photos they are showing online are not representative of the product. They are counting on making a quick bundle and seeing only a small number of complaints because the price is so low most people will just write it off as a loss.

I'd buy one just for the bumper to be able to change colors on my original silver

Title of the auction is for "Luxury New Hybrid" case.
Have the knock off manufacturers moved on from "NED HYBRID" to "NEW HYBRID"?

Did you guys read the side of the case where it says neo hybrid?

Most fake ones say neo hybrid in the picture but when you receive it will still say ned
Sent from my SCH-I545 using Tapatalk 2

I got one also, i hope its thinner than the other Ned Hybrid knock off I got from eBay.

The only negative i can see with this case, is they dont have the same color as authentic

Whoever buys this, please post some real pictures and feedback on that case please. 10x guys :highfive:

Lok at the first pictures, at the right they show the available colors and that seems to be the real thing.
If you look closely, its clearly plastic and, if I'm not crazy, it says NED Hybrid...
And the plastic looks pretty cheap too.
I wouldn't buy that... but look forward for your review.

I'm also looking forward to a review...from the pics it looks like a pretty good reproduction. I'm concerned with the fit, I had a knock-off one for my S3 and it was really loose on the phone.

Most sellers use spigens stock image, not their products real pictures. Now this one, it's different. And its not hard to tell that its their own fake neo hybrid pictures. It clearly says NEO. Lol. Im using my authentic one to show you guys the lettering

Sorry I did not express myself well. Yes they are made of plastic haha, bu I mean that those in the photos look very cheap, like toys or something, and even tough the original ones area plastic, if you look some pics of them (not stock ones), they look far better.
Anyway, I think we'll have to wait for our friend to receive it.

looks better than the $30 legit one i have

Look on Amazon. I did get one, but I wasn't happy with the finish, compared to the version shown in the thread (which I also have).

I would also love to see a replica Note 3 cover for the S4. I've looked on eBay, Amazon, and various other threads but haven't seen one that I really like. I have a blue leather pattern one on my S4 now, but to be honeset, it's rather ugly...:crying:

samsung may release a cover like that for our s4

Really want one
No way. Samsung will probably keep this design for the S5 or F series. However, I'm sure that somebody will launch a cover like Note 3's one day.

you can get a leather one from here, mine arrived today and although its quite expensive its a lot better than the one that amazon sells.

alot of cases you get out there can very cheap quality and not last long. id rather spend $20 on a good case then $10 on a case that will last a month

so anyone got any from ebay that is of good quality and is same as Note 3 ? There are alot of people selling now but don't know which one is worth buying. also that glossy sides turns me off.

The metal strap can be detached for sure... Instructions are shown on the user guide... My only issue is the strap is a bit big for me and there ?is no way to adjust it like the other straps?

It is detachable, as per manual, which you'll find here:
http://www.sonymobile.com/us/support/accessories/smartwatch-2-sw2/support-documents/
10 of the 7-7.5 mm wide joints can be removed. I removed 4 and I got a girly 17 cm circumference wrist. It had been so long since last time, that I didn't remember how to take metal straps of this type apart, so I used below video. I find her voice quite annoying, but it's some solid instructions :good:

Hi guys, I have a question about metal strap. Is it heavy on your wrist? If you have ever used Diesel metal strap watches can you compare to them? I live in USA but I am thinking to buy from Amazon.co.uk with metal strap and price is cheaper than USA price.

I've just got a SW2 with the metal strap but i could do with some extra links but after contacting Sony Support they don't sell them
Has anyone come across any?

i wouldnt say that its HEAVY really, but u can feel the weight, it feels solid, what i've learned tho is that i gets cold easily (of course it does, its metal) and getting it adjusted to your size is annoying, i'll be buying a silicon wristband soon.

Thanks for answer. Actually I have bought metal strap version from Amazon.co.uk 3 weeks ago. For me, it is not heavy at all. I am used to wear Diesel brand ceramic strap watches and they are much way heavier than this watch. Overall, I am happy with my watch

I just got my new metal band. I had the OEM Sony band but it was a link or two too small. This one fits GREAT and looks awesome. It's the 24mm type ii engineer band from Strapcode. I sold my metal Sony band for $100 on eBay.
I've gotten A LOT of compliments so far.

You can't buy the OEM Sony metal bands anywhere. A lot of people purchased the rubber versions with the expectation of being able to pick up a metal band on the cheap. But, they soon learned that a GOOD 24mm metal band is pricey. The closest you can get to the OEM band is the Strapcode Bandolier model #SS242413BBK027 which sells for $190. I got mine for $150, well $50 if you subtract what I sold my OEM band for.

Wow. I definitely did not expect this. I mean that's half the price of the watch ^o^
I bet that rubber band isn't worth a dime.
